Nazi gonna Nazi:

Bovino is at this conference today:
A lawmaker from Germany's Alternative für Deutschland and the president of the New York Young Republican Club are set to appear at a conference on “remigration" alongside some of Europe’s most prominent right-wing extremists, among them: a Belgian Holocaust denier, a Swiss neo-Nazi and an Austrian activist best known for promoting the “great replacement” conspiracy theory.
Josh Kovensky at TPM has a really good piece about the lies and bullshit used in an effort to convict the “Broadview 6,” the group that includes Kat Abughazaleh:
At a May 21 court hearing, Perry said that she had found three instances of potential prosecutorial misconduct by Sheri Mecklenburg, the prosecutor who left the case for the Senate in February. Mecklenburg had improperly used her own credibility to vouch for the case, had “communications of a substantive nature” with grand jurors outside of the room, and removed grand jurors who disagreed with the case from deliberations, Perry said.
On top of all that, the judge said, prosecutors redacted all of this out of the transcripts that they first provided.
“I do believe deeply in the presumption of regularity and that most government attorneys are doing the best they can to do the right thing,” Perry, who was nominated in 2023 to be the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois before then-Senator J.D. Vance (R-OH) blocked it, said. “That trust has been broken.” She added that she had “never seen the types of prosecutorial behavior before a grand jury that I saw in those transcripts.”
The case was dismissed with prejudice. At the hearing, U.S. Attorney Andrew Boutros appeared and apologized, saying that he was “upset” over the fiasco and that he was unaware of any alleged prosecutorial misconduct until late April.
On Wednesday, Boutros issued an announcement promising “remedial” steps for Chicago federal prosecutors “to address root-cause issues” in how the office presents cases to grand juries.
That same day, several media outlets reported, another Trump opponent found herself under investigation: E Jean Carroll. Boutros’ office is reportedly investigating. He denied on Thursday that the probe is criminal.
I’ve already written about the Broadview 6, but Josh’s piece ties it all together. Boutros, of course, is lying to the judge, as did all of his career AUSAs, which again raises the question about how much lying went on in Chicago before Trump took over. I’m guessing “a lot”.
